here is the progress, interior done, some of it was a happy accident when i changed colors on the blanket (why did i do green lol) but the dark green sort of shows through and then i stamped it with a firm brush and it looks like a fuzzy blanket which is what i wanted in the first place lol. Same with the pillow but no brush stamp i love the look and all by accident lol.
Of course now progress comes to a hault while i try to save my windshield from tamiya glue.
Thank you all for your kind words, help, and inspiration.
Tip, do not remove the protective plastic guard on the side steps until after you get the body mounted. The steps are very weak and i broke one just handeling it trying to mount the body. The body is a pain to get mounted. Because you have to spread the body to mount it and it wont spread because its already been glued to cab. I used a flat dental tool to pry the body apart enough to slip on.

its done other than the decals which i will wait till i get my custom "durango daves" logos done for mudflaps, doors and behind sleeper.
Gonna let it sit and dry till tomorrow, then ill clean all smudges off chrome with qtip and touch up any paint. Then decals and ready for grandson.
Tip- when you mount the passenger side aircleaner, pull it as far as you can back towards the side door. Mine is correct but when you lift hood, passenger side rubs on finder as you lift it up. Drivers side clears no problem. Passenger side is about a 8th of an inch from clearing.
Youll see the pic im pointing with a chrome piece where it rubs.
